Peninsula: 72 Hours of Blind Dates

However, Han Xijun reacted very quickly, directly turning the tables by saying that he had already sent photos to Wu Haiyuan, and since Wu Haiyuan had photos on his phone, wasn't it because he wanted to send them to him that he took them?

Wu Haiyuan decisively shook his head and said no.

Han Xijun immediately asked who he intended to send the photo to, his tone tinged with a hint of sourness.

Wu Haiyuan didn't think much of it; he just said he was taking the picture to show himself.

Han Xijun simply shook his head and remained silent.

When Wu Haiyuan realized what was happening, he raised his hand and slapped Han Xijun's arm. The slap was quite forceful, and Wu Haiyuan, still fuming, glared at Han Xijun with wide eyes.

That gaze could send chills down your spine; Han Xijun truly felt that way.

The key point is that Han Xijun had felt it before, although not as intensely as he did now. He remembered that once at home, his mother glared at his father like that.

In an instant, Han Xijun's momentum was suppressed again.

Shrug, Han Xijun muttered, "I like you, so cute, yeah, cute."

"..."

"Can phone cases be customized?" Wu Haiyuan suppressed a laugh.

This trick was actually taught to Wu Haiyuan by Han Xijun's mother when they were shopping at the mall that day.

Tell Wu Haiyuan that Han Xijun and his father are the same type of people. To deal with such people, you need to take the absolute initiative in terms of momentum. It's very simple to do this: turn the tables and remember these four words.

Today was Wu Haiyuan's first time trying this, and he remained calm and did not let Han Xijun's words and tactics sway him. Unexpectedly, the effect was surprisingly good.

Han Xijun clearly backed down.

Wu Haiyuan wasn't unwilling to send that photo to Han Xijun; he had originally intended to give Han Xijun a "fatal blow" when he took it.

Who is Wu Haiyuan? There is an invisible, indomitable spirit in her personality.

When you, Han Xijun, took a picture while taking a shower and sent it to Wu Haiyuan, Wu Haiyuan panicked, became flustered, and blushed.

Wu Haiyuan wanted Han Xijun to experience this feeling too.

It wasn't "unintentional" for Wu Haiyuan to open the photo album in the coffee shop; rather, it was intentional.

The point is to keep them in suspense. I definitely won't send it to Han Xijun tonight, at least not when the two of them are on a date. Maybe after midnight, when people are at their "loneliest," the photo will appear in their Kakao chat.

Customized couple phone cases weren't in the plan. But couples should have some exclusive items, after all.

Matching pajamas, matching shirts, matching phone cases, rings, necklaces, and the like are things that Mandarin-speaking couples often do together during their relationship. Owning something unique to both of them is a beautiful testament to their love.

Wu Haiyuan has never had a phone case customized.

I found out about the stores in Dongdaemun Market that offer custom phone case services online.

NMIXXX fans have ordered custom phone cases made with photos of the NMIXXX members in Dongdaemun.

Anyway, it's nearby, so I might as well go and take a look. It would be a bit troublesome to actually customize it. After all, neither she nor Han Xijun are ordinary people. It's unlikely that they can customize phone cases with their photos together. At most, it would be something like the bizarre phone cases that Wu Haiyuan mentioned before, or some exaggerated phone cases with seafood designs.

The night is getting darker.

Han Hee-joon has never eaten anything near Dongdaemun.

Choose between grilled meat and chicken dishes.

Han Hee-joon and Oh Hae-won chose chicken dishes at almost the same time.

It's not that barbecue is expensive, it's just that this weather is more suitable for eating piping hot chicken dishes or hot pot.

The shop's name is very simple and unpretentious. The founder's name must be Chen Yuhua.

Han Xijun and Wu Haiyuan, who were sitting at a table on the left side of the wall in Grandma Chen Yuhua's Chicken Shop, each ordered a whole chicken in clear soup.

It's similar to ginseng chicken soup, with almost all the ingredients added to the stewed chicken being nourishing, such as abalone and small ginseng roots.

It will be cut open with scissors first, and the waiter will cut it in front of the customer after it is served.

The side dishes and kimchi went well with the stewed chicken.

The chicken is tender, and the broth is refreshing.

Use Qingyang chili peppers dipped in sauce to enhance the spiciness, not to be served with rice, and then add noodles at the end.

My body felt warm from the first bite.

When I took off my coat towards the end of the meal, I realized that the restaurant didn't even have the heating on.

The other tables were almost all filled with people drinking and eating chicken pieces.

Han Xijun and Wu Haiyuan also ordered alcohol, not ordinary soju or beer, but homemade liquor brewed by the shop owner.

The alcohol content is about 6 degrees higher than that of shochu, falling within the 23-degree range. A sip of the infused liquor, a piece of chicken, a bite of a side dish, and a sip of chicken soup.

Or the order can be reversed.

We didn't chat much, and the ingredients in the casserole were quickly finished.

I finished the infused liquor before cooking the noodles.

While waiting for the noodles, Han Hee-joon finally asked, "Did the other members spend Christmas together?"

Throughout the day, Wu Haiyuan was surprised to find that he hadn't thought about the members even once.

Christmas is only a one-day holiday, followed by the year-end stage programs of the three major TV stations. Before the New Year, nmixx also has a live broadcast plan to welcome the new year with fans and viewers in advance. The company has also prepared many surprise gifts for the last live broadcast before the end of the year.

Thinking of the members, Wu Haiyuan muttered, "They're probably in the dorms, resting."

"It's only nine o'clock."

"It's only nine o'clock?"

"They won't be waiting for you to come home for dinner, will they?"

Wu Haiyuan shook his head and said, "No, they all know we're together today."

After a moment of silence, Wu Haiyuan asked, "Why don't we ask?"

Han Xijun said, "Don't ask anymore. They will definitely take good care of themselves. Besides, it's not convenient to pack chicken soup to take back. It's better to just order takeout."

That's the logic.

It's fine if the members aren't mentioned, but when they are, Wu Haiyuan feels a sense of guilt.

I always felt that I should take good care of the members.

Han Xijun suddenly interjected, "Or, how about we go get some barbecue to take back to the dorm later?"

"barbecue?"

"Yeah, Daerim-dong isn't far from your dorm. Unlike the chicken and squid skewers sold on the street in Myeongdong, these are grilled over charcoal and seasoned. They're really delicious."

Before you know it, it's 10:30.

Cheongdam-dong, downstairs from the nmixx dormitory building.

Han Xijun waved his hand and said, "I'm not going up." "Really not going up?"

"Yes, there's a very important meeting tomorrow."

Wu Haiyuan raised his hand and touched Han Xijun's cheek.

Han Xijun was stunned.

Wu Haiyuan himself was stunned.

Withdrawing his hand, Wu Haiyuan said, "Then go home and get some rest."

Han Xijun smiled and said, "I'm sure you learned something from my mother."

"What?!"

"This is not a move you can make on your own."

Wu Haiyuan changed the subject: "Anyway, you should get some rest. These last few days of the year will definitely be very busy and tiring. I haven't had any..."

"Okay, if you can take care of me next year, I'm leaving now."

Wu Haiyuan watched Han Xijun leave in a taxi. He muttered to himself, "What does 'if I can take care of him next year' mean? Is it an implication?"
